Re: need help with categories and article landing page.
I was assuming that
category='<txp:category />'would put in the current category as found in the url if that page was arrived at from a permlink. guess it only tests that it’s in A category. even so the tag trace says false….

Re: need help with categories and article landing page.
if_category will only return true if you’re on a category page. The page in question looks like an individual article page to me.

Re: need help with categories and article landing page.
If you need to display articles in the same category as the current article, you can leave out the if_category part, move the article_custom tag inside the if_individual_article conditional, and change category='<txp:category />' to category='<txp:category1 />' (or category2). If there is no category1 (or 2), no articles will be displayed.
